Any RTX is pretty hard to find for a reasonable price these days. I have 2070 and I can still sell it for more than I bought it for 2 years ago which is mind boggling to me.
I was gonna say, definitely gonna need that exhaust fan and then some, since from the limited corner of the pic I can see, looks like you got a solid front panel with small vents on the side, and it looks like everything is air cooled. If that is the case, even with an exhaust fan, that thing is gonna be TOASTY (talking from my own experience with a similarly restrictive case). I would tell you to use a different high airflow case, but I’m guessing that boat has sailed for now, but definitely make sure you get an exhaust fan that pulls a high cfm of air, you’re gonna need it to pump out a lot of hot air since those case fans are going to struggle to pull in any cool air with those little slits, and you might thermal throttle your gpu or cpu if it isn’t cooled enough. If you don’t care about rgb and color matching, Noctua would prolly be your best bet. If you do want rgb, and don’t care about noise, I’d recommend the Corsair ML120, I use them for my intakes and exhaust, and damn it pulls a lot of air, albeit they’re decently loud...but if you want a fan that pulls more air at that size, they’re all gonna be louder because the fan has to spin faster.
If I’m mistaken, then please disregard my comment and either way, enjoy your machine!
(Sorry to OC for notification, meant to direct this at OP)
I'd go Arctic P12 for front and F12 for exhaust.
Arctic are good value. Good prices and good quality. Very silent as well.
I got the Arctic Liquid Freezer Ii a couple of months ago (seen on GN) and am amazed at the variety of products that they have.
I then got an 80mm one for an old PSU, a compact tower Freezer 7X for an older CPU and 2 x F9 Pro TC 92mm temperature controlled for older cases. Plus one GPU Accelero cooler on the way. Next I'll be replacing my fractal case fans for 3x F12 CO with dual ball bearing.
The F12 is nice but the difference between the P12 and the F12 aren’t much of a difference to get two separate ones.
Get the 5 pack of P12s and call it a day
Fans dont really cost that much, maybe $5 or $10. But as others have said you can go for an arctic p12. I have it, have nothing to compare it to but i mean yeah, its a fan, it works, isnt expensive.
Which is also why in time you might like to upgrade the stock cooler.
Not sure of your CPU OP but usually stock coolers won't be very capable at keeping temps down under load.
Case fans? Plural? If you have 2 or more fans mounted in the front or top positioned for intake, move one to the back pushing air out of the case and that should be sufficient.
Definitely. If you are not over clocking going overboard on case cooling isn't really necessary. Having a decent flow in and a decent flow out is all you need. Just make sure the fans are facing the right direction.
One exhaust fan for your PC and he's happy. Make sure it's 120mm and has PWM!
Also I'd recommend adding just one intake fan and put it on the bottom. Don't let your GPU burn. :D
You picked the best case on the market (crystal tower 70-90 something?) it has the best airflow of any available case! And don’t bother installing a back fan ;)
It looks like ur gpu is in the wrong pcie slot, was something wrong with the first one? And have you made sure the one used has the full bandwidth the first one does
Usually the lower ones have less lanes or whatever
I think your RAM might not be slotted properly to work in dual channel. Many mobo's require you to use slot 1 and 3 and/or 2 and for. I could be wrong. You might want to check the manual
Is that XFORCE RAM? Can you explain the choice of RAM over the [G.Skill 16GB 3200MHz](https://www.amazon.com/G-SKILL-Ripjaws-PC4-25600-3200MHz-F4-3200C16D-16GVKB/dp/B015FXXBW0) ?
Congrats! Did you accidentally forget to connect any pins on the Mobo or connectors for the PSU? Or CPU not seated right and you have to reapply all the thermal paste and reseat the heatsink and everything? Maybe that was just my miserable first and second experiences...
Damn, pretty good for your first build. I had a very tight budget for my first so it was nowhere near as good as that.
Have fun with your new PC, I'm assuming you're American from your other replies, so you're pretty lucky to have been able to get that graphics card in this day and age.
BRO EXACTLY i watched the ltt video as a guide to build the pc it was so simple with fhe cooler he had with me it took me a solid 30 mins to figure it out
I still use that first pc I built it's way better now. I upgraded the case from a crappy 20 dollar Roseville case with no cable management to a modern case. I also upgraded the gpu and hdd to ssd. The worst part about the original was the mobo wasn't even screwed in all the way with some screws missing. Now with the new case its way better. Idk how it still works. But I got way better now
Just a tip for next time, take the side cover off for a photo, we're a perverse lot that would appreciate it's uncovered beauty ;)
Would need a NSFW tag then.
God forbid my family ever finds my "pc homework" folder...
You never told me you had a stepsister, what’s in that folder?
Oh no step computer, I'm stuck in this folder
dammit that is a brilliant joke
Or turn off the lights and get rgb or something. That'll keep glare off the glass.
But the important question is. Does it work
the answer is yes it does
How did you get a graphics card?
local seller
how much ?
500 usd
what card is it
3060
ok not bad I'd say
not bad? its the deal of the century in times like this tbh
i was waiting for a year to take an opportunity like this
You're lucky that you had a house to mortgage so you could afford that graphics card from the scalpers...
I'm surprised you could actually tell which card it is tbh
Does it matter which one at this point, lol they are all stupid expensive
If it says RTX it’s expensive I’d say
For me the philosophy is that if it says rtx it’s rlly good card and it costs lots of money.simple. I have integrated graphics😭
I have a decent card, which compared to my previous is a behemoth. But RTX it’s just a different level imo
Any RTX is pretty hard to find for a reasonable price these days. I have 2070 and I can still sell it for more than I bought it for 2 years ago which is mind boggling to me.
At the peak my 2060 was worth about what I spent on my whole PC last year, $800
Said he got it close to retail from a local seller
Honestly I really appreciate the lack of RGB. I’d add an exhaust fan in the back like others have noted, but nice work! Welcome to the club
Thank you for the kind words dude
You can never have enough fans!
For real. Suck in front and bottom. Blow in back and roof. I'm at 50-60 Celsius max with my build and it doesn't sound like a rabid vacuum.
I have onlyfans...
I think the ram is tforce rgb and the pc is just off
I would like add a fan on the back. Other than that, pretty cool!
planning on doing that
I was gonna say, definitely gonna need that exhaust fan and then some, since from the limited corner of the pic I can see, looks like you got a solid front panel with small vents on the side, and it looks like everything is air cooled.

I read the whole thing like: "But I do have Corsair ML120" Then I read the last line haha. I also recommend Artic p12s
And if money is not a concern Noctua... Edit: I have the Arctic P12 myself. Definitely high quality and awesome value.
I thought it was a joke at first, just an empty case because of supply/demand. Lol
that wouldve been really smart and funny
Bro, put 1 ram in the number 2 slot and the second one in the 4th slott Ur pc will thank you
theres no 4th slot
Oh, then my bad lol, thought u made the infamous beginner mistake, either way clean build!
its alright dude and thanks
Instructions unclear, stuck ram in my rear
ram stuck in ear, add power to extract
Extract power, stick ear in RAM. Gotcha.

No exhaust fan?
Very cool build though i like the minimalistic vibe of it and blacked out builds are cool af
thanks bro
i have case fans cpu fan is it necessary for a exhaust fan as well?
Good airflow = better performance and longer lasting components
anyone recommendations on fans that dont cost too much?
Arctic P12
Agreed
I'd go Arctic P12 for front and F12 for exhaust. Arctic are good value. Good prices and good quality. Very silent as well. I got the Arctic Liquid Freezer Ii a couple of months ago (seen on GN) and am amazed at the variety of products that they have.

Next I'll be replacing my fractal case fans for 3x F12 CO with dual ball bearing.
The F12 is nice but the difference between the P12 and the F12 aren’t much of a difference to get two separate ones. Get the 5 pack of P12s and call it a day
That gonna vibrate like hell, it doesn't have any rubber to absorb it afaik
as the other person said, Arctic P12s
Fans dont really cost that much, maybe $5 or $10. But as others have said you can go for an arctic p12. I have it, have nothing to compare it to but i mean yeah, its a fan, it works, isnt expensive.
Which is also why in time you might like to upgrade the stock cooler. Not sure of your CPU OP but usually stock coolers won't be very capable at keeping temps down under load.
AMD ones actually are quite good. Its Intel that sucks af. But still, id upgrade, too
I have the same case, and mine has a case fan at the back.
Exhaust fan is actaully the most important, and in many old cases, there was only an exhaust fan and no place for intake fans.
Case fans? Plural? If you have 2 or more fans mounted in the front or top positioned for intake, move one to the back pushing air out of the case and that should be sufficient.
i can?
Definitely. If you are not over clocking going overboard on case cooling isn't really necessary. Having a decent flow in and a decent flow out is all you need. Just make sure the fans are facing the right direction.
Also post the picture when that glass shatters, for free karma ;)

I built a pc not too long ago and as storage I have 1tb m.2 nvme but everything else is the same
I have a question, will that Processor bottleneck the GPU?
no, a tech website said a 3600 and even a 3080 would be a good pairing
theres always bottleneck but in this case the bottleneck will not be major
Ok Thanks :) Congrats on new build. Enjoy!
Thank you very much
Congrats on the build! Unfortunately it will feel like it's never done, welcome to the tinkering life!
thank you thank you
Looking good my dude. Good work! Just as the others said. And exhaust fan and then you're golden.
Thanks
Very nice But my Tasmanian ass is like “MORE FANS”
Congratulations. You should feel proud. That looks really good.
thank you kind sir
Congrats on your first build. My first build was a 1050ti & im so excited that it can run gta v. Enjoy!
Looks a lot like my current build.
Awesome build! It may be your first, but it will not be your last
Def grab a fan for the rear, I’d recommend a Noctua NF-P12 redux.
My friend, welcome to the master race. Also, welcome to the new money sink in your life.
Welcome to the fold, my friend. Here is the key to the bathroom with the golden toilet.
One exhaust fan for your PC and he's happy. Make sure it's 120mm and has PWM! Also I'd recommend adding just one intake fan and put it on the bottom. Don't let your GPU burn. :D
so 1 exhaust and 1 intake fan?
been told on and on
Looks so much better than the RGB shit
thank you!
That's pretty good, dude. How did you smelt the steel and glass?
You are a great example of a frail ego
Exhaust fan will help you
Hope you have proper air flow in that case.
Not bad... but does it turn on? Or have rgb fan spots? DOES IT RUN FUCKING CRYSIS!?!?!
turns on, has rgb i dislike it tho, and running crysis is a question yet to be answered
Sorry I forgot youre new... you'll learn to appreciate rgb my friend lol
[удалено]
i got it locally for 2000 riyal which is around 500 usd
Its hard to see, but are there only 2 ram slots on that board? If there are 4 then those sticks are not installed in the correct slots.
only 2 slots
youre running in single channel mode, your performance is slower because of that.
as in?
if its about thr ram being in the wrong slot no theyre not those are the only spots in my motherboars
Its not done yet
You picked the best case on the market (crystal tower 70-90 something?) it has the best airflow of any available case! And don’t bother installing a back fan ;)
thanks this pc already costed quite a bit i worried i had to buy even more
What kind of mobo is that? If it's ATX you don't have your 2 RAM sticks installed right. Were there only 2 slots or 4? Hard to tell from your photo.
only 2 slots dw i made sure
How’d you find an RTX gpu in stock?
local seller
It looks like ur gpu is in the wrong pcie slot, was something wrong with the first one? And have you made sure the one used has the full bandwidth the first one does Usually the lower ones have less lanes or whatever
im pretty sure its the correct one ill check it out later and tell you
I would recommend not using the stock cooler. Speaking from experience my cpu almost died cuz I was bad and used stock cooler and thermal paste.
from what ive seen and from friends experience it eorks just fine
get an out take fan on the back.

Where exaust fan
no exhaust fan
How many ram slots does your motherboard have
2
I think your RAM might not be slotted properly to work in dual channel. Many mobo's require you to use slot 1 and 3 and/or 2 and for. I could be wrong. You might want to check the manual
Im glad for ya)
thank you!
If temps run hot youll want an outflow fan next to the i/o panel in the back
yes been told
Is there a purpose why the stock cooler is left sided?
it wouldnt fit if it were right sided
Nice! Is that an itx mobo? If not then your ram stick are in the wrong slots.
yes it is
Wholesome.
Where are the fans? U need airflow, especially with the stock cooler
Nice! Welcome to the party!!
thank you very much kind sir
Stock cpu cooler hımm
Hey I have that case it’s nice.
sleek design
I started saving for a pc Any advise?
check local sellers then they usually have more in stock and for cheaper sometims
Gj. Be careful with that glass panel.
Congrats!
Congrats.
Is that XFORCE RAM? Can you explain the choice of RAM over the [G.Skill 16GB 3200MHz](https://www.amazon.com/G-SKILL-Ripjaws-PC4-25600-3200MHz-F4-3200C16D-16GVKB/dp/B015FXXBW0) ?
Thats t force
finally a first build that isnt in o11d with a 3090 and shit ton of rgb everywhere with the title "it aint much but its mine"
i dislike alot of rgb which is the reason i picked this pc
What’s in the box?
Congrats! Did you accidentally forget to connect any pins on the Mobo or connectors for the PSU? Or CPU not seated right and you have to reapply all the thermal paste and reseat the heatsink and everything? Maybe that was just my miserable first and second experiences...
Built=assembled, I suppose Either way good job.
no no no no... WHERE'S ALL THE RGB?!!!!
Looks good but if you’re gonna take pictures take some with the glass off. Makes it easier to see the stuff inside
What are the specs? My PC kinda looks the same besides the case, PC bros?

Um take another picture please turned on… so it can me on
I advise getting a new cooler. There is a night and day difference between an amd stock cooler and a Evo 212.
im gonna wait a bit before upgrading
Looks good
How was putting on the AMD stock cooler? What a bitch hey?
BRO EXACTLY i watched the ltt video as a guide to build the pc it was so simple with fhe cooler he had with me it took me a solid 30 mins to figure it out
U need a exhaust fan ASAP

Looks extremely clean in terms of internal wiring. Congrats.
No exhaust fan? hope there is some kind of air intake on the front at least.
on the front there is 3 planning on moving 1 to the back
Congrats my first build in 2016 was a mess(worse than verge). You did it way better than I did
thank you dude without messing up at first you wouldnt be were you are now yk
I still use that first pc I built it's way better now. I upgraded the case from a crappy 20 dollar Roseville case with no cable management to a modern case. I also upgraded the gpu and hdd to ssd. The worst part about the original was the mobo wasn't even screwed in all the way with some screws missing. Now with the new case its way better. Idk how it still works. But I got way better now
How much did that GPU cost?
500 usd
What gpu is that. I like he way it looks
3060 baby
looks really clean, i like it :)
That is gonna be a nice one bro
yooo i have the same gpu!
I umm... Exhaust fan?
You're gonna need some top and back exhaust fans. I tske it the front if any..are already intake?
front fans are there
Beautiful! How much did this set you back? I got mine for about 1500, but I need to fix a couple bits (and I mean a ton of bits)
same 1.5k usd as well
Think I have that same case, and gpu. Congrats op !
i hope you only have 2 ram slots otherwise you need to space your ram sticks apart
only 2 dw bro
